SWI/SNF complexes shape 3D chromatin architecture through CTCF and cohesin

Nature, Published online: 28 October 2026; [doi:10.1038/s41586-026-11197-w][1]

Loss of function of canonical BAF induces gain of CTCF and cohesin binding that alters 3D genome architecture and reprograms transcription.

Presynaptic homeostasis mediated by exocytosis of a SNARE protein

Nature, Published online: 28 October 2026; [doi:10.1038/s41586-026-11201-3][1]

Experiments show that when subjected to high-frequency stimulation, excitatory neurons exhibit a presynaptic form of homeostatic plasticity mediated by the exocytosis of v-SNARE protein VAMP7 and the resulting inhibition of P/Q-type calcium channels.

Cave stalagmites document global patterns in monsoon rainfall over the past 450,000 years

Nature, Published online: 21 October 2026; [doi:10.1038/d41586-026-03285-8][1]

A 450,000-year stalagmite record of rainfall in the Amazon Basin , combined with existing Asian records, shows that the global monsoon system has oscillated regularly, strengthening in one hemisphere while weakening in the other. However, during intervals of warmth and warming climate, monsoons in both hemispheres failed for millennia.

Embedding enzymes that break down ester bonds into compostable polyesters enables rapid and complete biodegradation even in microbe-scarce environments. This method is effective in marine sites ranging from coastal sea water to the deep sea, and could therefore contribute towards solving the global plastic pollution problem.

Blood cells replace the immune cells of the ageing human brain

Nature, Published online: 02 September 2026; [doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02694-z][1]

At birth, the brain contains its own immune cells, called microglia, that are thought to persist throughout life without being replaced by cells from outside the brain. Studies that trace cell lineage now show that these cells are replaced by circulating immune cells during ageing, revealing a previously unappreciated interaction between the brain and the rest of the body.

Savannah grass growth in dry conditions is boosted by increased CO2 levels

Nature, Published online: 26 August 2026; [doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02480-x][1]

Analysis of 70 experiments and 32 years of field observations shows that increasing the amount of carbon dioxide enhances the growth of the C4 group of grasses when water is limited. These findings challenge the assumption that C4 grasses respond weakly to changes in carbon dioxide level, and reveal an overlooked driver of change across the world’s savannahs.

Plasma-jet movie is astronomy’s summer blockbuster

Nature, Published online: 26 August 2026; [doi:10.1038/d41586-026-02522-4][1]

Just 116 images exist of the active galaxy 3C 345 — but an AI-driven algorithm has created a highly detailed video of the plasma jets blasted from its centre.

Spontaneously charged water drops induce corrosion

Nature, Published online: 26 August 2026; [doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10941-6][1]

Experiments have shown that spontaneously charged water drops can damage coatings on metal surfaces, leading to corrosion of the metal.

Long-read sequencing reveals pre-meiotic gene conversion in sperm

Nature, Published online: 26 August 2026; [doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10901-0][1]

Single-molecule long-read sequencing of human sperm reveals variation in recombination across donors and that a substantial fraction of non-crossover gene conversions arises before meiosis, distinct from PRDM9-driven recombination and associated with fragile sites.

Granule cells reorient cortical trajectories to separate contexts

Nature, Published online: 26 August 2026; [doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10946-1][1]

Simultaneous imaging of premotor cortex and cerebellar granule cells in mice learning two skills in parallel shows that trajectories generalize in cortex but coherently reorient apart in granule cells, supporting generalization and separation between contexts.

Endocannabinoids facilitate reward engagement through retrograde gain control

Nature, Published online: 26 August 2026; [doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10967-w][1]

A key role for retrograde neuromodulatory signalling in motivated behaviour is shown through dynamic endocannabinoid release within a thalamostriatal circuit that regulates behavioural engagement during reward seeking.

Critical zone processes limit alkalinity export from natural basaltic systems

Nature, Published online: 26 August 2026; [doi:10.1038/s41586-026-10936-3][1]

Observations from natural volcanic watersheds demonstrate attenuation of alkalinity fluxes along the complete reactive pathways from soil to river that lead to reductions in exported alkalinity, indicating the limiting effects of critical zone processes.
